His Majesty's Hospital Ship Britannic Britannic was the third and largest Olympic-class ocean liner of the White Star Line. The sister ship to RMS Olympic and RMS Titanic, she was launched on 26 February 1914 at the Belfast shipyard of Harland & Wolff. However, before Britannic was ready to enter transatlantic service as planned between Southampton and New York the First World War broke out in August 1914. Just over a year later, on 13 November 1915, Britannic was requisitioned for use as a hospital ship and was repainted white with a horizontal green stripe and large red crosses and was renamed HMHS (His Majesty's Hospital Ship) Britannic under the command of Captain Charles A. Bartlett.
